For more than 25,000 years, Hatton sent away all the old friends who knew him again and again, and some of them lost their minds and were even executed by him himself.

The long life and countless painful experiences have long taught Hatton to close his heart, otherwise he will be pulled into the abyss by those boiling negative emotions sooner or later.

Although Hatton still leads the dwindling number of Shattered Ones to fight in the wilderness of Crowkuhn, deep down he has long lost confidence in changing the status quo, and is just trying to survive.

After many years, Argus, who had never suffered a large-scale invasion from foreign enemies before, actually welcomed a long-awaited "visitor", and Hatton knew that this might be the last hope of the Argus crushers led by him.

By the time the Breakers, rooted in the Crocoon Wilderness, had begun to move, Sarlian had already led the landing force to the skies above Eridas, the best-preserved region of the Argus landscape, the once political, economic, and cultural center of the Ereda civilization.

Today's Eredas is actually only the central part of the Aredar capital, and the outskirts of the city have long since collapsed due to the deep erosion of evil energy, and the remaining part is still due to the reverse osmosis of the power of the Void.

I have to say that this situation is ironic enough.

A delicate balance has been struck between two equally corrosive negative energies, and luckily the central city of Eredas has been preserved.

Unlike the ordinary soldiers who landed in the landing module, Sarjan directly transformed into a golden dragon body and burst into ...... After all, Argus's atmosphere has long been negligibly thin, and Sarjan doesn't have to worry about turning into a big fireball due to friction with the atmosphere when he breaks into the planet.

As they swooped down from the orbit of space, the three of them were able to overlook the landscape of Eredas very intuitively.

The most striking is naturally the seat of the Archium in the heart of Eridas, followed by the Palace of Mysteries, once managed by Akmund himself, which was once the dream center of countless Eredar scholars (mages).

To the surprise of the three of Saljan, Eredas was actually covered with a lot of vegetation.

Although most of this vegetation has turned yellow due to the erosion of external forces, the scenery of the Eredas region is already commendable compared to the Antolan Wasteland and Crocoun next door.

Sarjan was the first to approach the surface, and thanks to the information provided by Talgas in advance, the first place of Sarrian's choice for the expeditionary force was at the end of the consul on the southern border of Eridas.

The name was given to Manari after the destruction of Argus by the Burning Legion.

As the name suggests, the end of the Consul symbolizes the destruction of the Ereda civilization, and it was here that Viren and the others boarded the Naru warship and embarked on a fugitive life that lasted for more than 25,000 years.

Even the demons of the Burning Legion and the Void forces entrenched in Eredas are reluctant to approach the end of the Archon, as there are still many of the heroes of Eredar who died heroically to cover the retreat of the civilians.

However, after a long period of devastation, these heroic spirits have long since lost their sense of self, and will only instinctively attack all outsiders who try to enter the end of the Consulate.

"That's ......"

Approaching the ground, Sarjan had already begun to think about how to purify the souls here, but before he landed, he saw a purple-black pillar of light rising above the seat of the Consul.

"Void Force...... Valera said with a solemn expression, "Sure enough, as Targas said, the once glorious seat of the Archium has become the base camp of the Void Force in Argus. ”

Valera and Saljan, who had turned on the Eagle Eye technique, quickly captured a number of Void minions scattered throughout Iredas, and their strongholds spread outward around the seat of the Archium.

"If I'm not mistaken."

Little Star pointed thoughtfully to a camp in the southwest of the Consulate's Seat: "Those ...... 'creatures'? Surely it should be the Ethereal Spirit you mentioned? ”

Ethereal spirits, commonly known as bandage people, are merchants and brokers who can freely travel through the universe in their physical bodies.

As long as it is profitable, you can almost always see traces of ethereal spirits.

The reason why Salaan mentions the Ethereal is because of the original history of Draenor...... Or rather, this creature has been abundant in the Outlands.

However, in this timeline, since Draenor has not been broken, the ethereal spirit has not entered Draenor, where the planet's structure is still intact, and so far, Stella Gossa and Valera have not really seen the ethereal.

"These bandage people ......"

Following Stellagosa's guidance, Sarren also noticed the ethereal spirits that were commanding the Void creatures.

"It seems that the void creatures of Argus were recruited by these guys."

"As far as I know, the Ethereals never make a loss-making deal, and under normal circumstances, given the sunk costs, it is impossible for them to take a fire next to the lair of the Burning Legion, and the person who hired them at the back of the ...... is the one who paid a lot of money to hire them?"

The Ethereals have no physical existence, and it is said that their home planet has long since been destroyed by the power of the Void.

The surviving ethereal spirits were all eroded by the power of the void, and their physical bodies were shattered, and they could only wrap their original physical shapes with special bandages, in fact, their current bodies were made of energy forms.

Perhaps because of this, the Ethereal Spirits have gained the special ability to travel freely in the universe, and they travel to and from every profitable planet to make profits by buying and selling, and the famous Astral Consortium is a giant capital institution composed of Ethereal Spirits.

Ethereal spirits have no moral discipline to speak of, as long as they can make money, they can do anything against their conscience, including but not limited to smuggling, plundering, stealing, etc.

Since the destruction of their home planet, the fleeing Ethereals have become a loose race that lacks cohesion, ranging from barely disciplined merchant organizations like the Astral Consortium to military institutions like the Order and the Avengers, whose primary goal is combat.

Regardless of the identities in which the Ethereals operate, their ultimate goal is to make a profit, and Sarjan does not believe that the Ethereals in the Eredas region are staying in this dangerous area close to the Burning Legion base out of their own volition, and that there are more powerful people behind them to support them.

"You mean......" Valeera asked, narrowing her eyes slightly, "Void Lord?" ”

"Not necessarily." Salian nodded with a calm expression: "But there is indeed such a possibility, after all...... There are not many people in the universe who dare to offend Sargeras and the Burning Legion. ”

"If that's really the case." Stella Gossa frowned and said, "Then it's troublesome, there must be an Elder God-level leader in the Void Force entrenched in Iredas. ”

Sarjan agreed, "This is reasonable, otherwise even if the void creatures are inexhaustible, it will not be impossible for Akmund to come forward in person, and there is a high probability that there is a person in this area who is similar in strength to the polluter...... At least it won't be too much of a difference between high-level Void creatures. ”

"Of course, I'm not talking about Lula, I'm talking about someone else."
